Sarah and I were both Liberty Lions and Mt. Whitney Pioneers. We were in student council together and our dads both served on the Liberty school board. Sarah was always such a kind, thoughtful, calm, caring person. She wore her beauty as much on the outside as she did on the inside...a true natural beauty! While I haven't seen her in some years, I can see that she never lost that long, expressive, contagious smile. Peace and love to all of those that loved her.

Larry, Ruth, Matt, Landon, your sweet Sarah blessed your lives with a brilliance that will never be dimmed. She was a gift from God and her love for you reflected His great love. He created her, loved her, and gave her to you to love and cherish, forever. As we count time, hers was too short. Allow the wonderful memories she provides you with, to console, knowing that the time of reunion will come again. She rests in peace, no longer in pain that beset her in the final days. As much as possible, let her comfort be yours too.

I didn't know the family, but today I was getting a pedicure, and the man next to me was talking about his beautiful wife, who had just died. He said they got pedicures every Sunday together and was getting one in honor of her today...I just happened to stumble upon this story a few hours later, and realized the man was Sarah's husband. My prayers for the families and friends of this woman who was so loved by her husband!

Dear Larry, Ruth, Landon, Matt & Family,
Though my heart "aches" so much for you and your painful loss of such a beautiful angel, I am so excited for Sarah. She will finally be at peace and walking with our Lord in her beautiful Heavenly home, smiling her contagious smile and enjoying a now healthy, cancer-free body.
I know you will miss her so much, but will have the "joy" of seeing her again someday. Praying to the Lord for your "comfort" and "rest" in these difficult days ahead. You are all in my heart, thoughts and prayers.
In "Christian Love,"
